  1. Re:That guide sucks on Some Geek Guides for Dating · · Score: 1

    Going to catch crabs
    Damn, you need to check out the women first ;)

  2. Re:Homophobia on Some Geek Guides for Dating · · Score: 1

    Informative? All this informs me is that the parent should be taken out to a quiet place and shot.

  3. Re:Graphics not that amazing. on Snowboarding Soul Ride Engine Goes GPL · · Score: 1

    "and the jagged peak in the background will also look perfectly smooth"

    Shit, and there I was thinking this sounded like a good idea.

  4. Re:Why? on Red Hat, Oracle to get Gov't Certification for Linux · · Score: 1

    Because being government certified means that they are eligible for use on government systems. Which equals money. 1. Build a distro. 2. Get certified. 3. ... 4. Profit!

  5. Re:Nice to See on Red Hat, Oracle to get Gov't Certification for Linux · · Score: 1

    I'm not really sure how they're "competitors", since they make different products. Red Hat develop Linux distros, and Oracle develop database servers. While Red Hat distros do include free database servers, big business (read "Government") is already invested in Oracle. Either company getting more business is gonna benefit the other.

  6. Re:Germany on Red Hat, Oracle to get Gov't Certification for Linux · · Score: 1

    And if you click the link, your amazing foresight will be proved right, by a banner ad for that very service!

  7. Re:Gui configuration tools? on Samba-TNG Team Releases 0.3 · · Score: 5, Interesting

    From what I read in the summary, you can use the same tools you'd use to admin a native NT4 server, at least for the server list, and users.

  8. Re:Better late than never? on Samba-TNG Team Releases 0.3 · · Score: 1

    They have. As the summary says, it now support the NT4 user/server manager tools. So you can use the same graphical tools to administer it as you use to administer a native NT4 PDC.

  9. Re:Visualizations Smisualizations on Xbox Media Player Contest · · Score: 1

    If your just listening to music while your doing other stuff, then no they don't add anything to the experience, and canned vises that come with media players are overused anyway. But I do VJing for gigs sometimes, and in that context, it does add to the experience - using a projector, someone with a camera moving around the place, visulisations, and plain video mixing really can add to the experience in that context.

  10. Re:Given that live music is the best music... on Instant Concert CDs? · · Score: 1

    Since the encores, bonus sets, and other stuff that happens "spontaneously" is usually set listed anyway (they still need to sound check it) all you need to do is give the people with the burners a copy of the set list, so they know when it's time to turn off the recording equipment, and start burning cds.

  11. If you're paying by the byte... on EFF Lists Wi-Fi-Friendly ISPs · · Score: 1

    Then why shouldn't you be allowed to share the access, since the ISP is getting paid for it anyway.

    However if you're just paying a flat rate, then you're taking advantage of that, by letting other people use your access as well. I'd certainly be pissed if someone stole my bandwidth...
